CryoLife was founded for the purpose of improving health and quality of life around the world. This year, CryoLife is helping to further the mission of the Aswan Heart Center in Aswan, Egypt through a fundraising campaign.
Aswan Heart Center offers state-of-the-art, free medical services underprivileged people in Egypt and surrounding areas - 60% of which are children. In 2017, nearly 1,000 open cardiac surgeries were performed, many on children who would have died without treatment.
